Pros:

The room was clean and comfortable .

Cons:

No hot water, unfortunately, when we arrived. We notified the reception and a plumber came about an hour later. There was a plumping issue before we arrived that caused this. So before we wanted to have a shower we had to let the water run for a bit. Never really came up to temp. That was the only annoying thing. The hotel could really do with doors that only open with a hotel key card when you get to the floor. As anyone can just walk up the stairs or use the lift and wonder about outside the rooms. I had an issue where I (a young women alone) was walking back to my room and I walked past a man who was intoxicated. I walked around the corner to my door, looked back down the hall and I could see his shadow walking back. Quickly ran in the room and locked the door in a panic. I looked out the peephole and he was standing with his back facing the door to my room. Rang my partner and told him and he ran up the stairs to me. He ran past the man walking away as he didn't know it was him outside the door. I think he heard me ringing my boyfriend as only then he started to walk away. My boyfriend went down and told reception immediately and they were actually very concerned. Had security sweep the floors to look for him. It was bank hol weekend so he could've been at the bar I'm not sure. Nothing else happened.
